Summertime Recipes:Romaine Salad with Orange, Feta & Beans

Adding canned beans is a quick, convenient way to make a salad into a meal – they boost the protein to make the salad more satisfying. We call for kidney beans, but other canned beans like cannellinis or black beans would also work nicely.

Our Story

Shattering the Silence

My aunt Gloria, the center and strength of our family, was needlessly taken by diabetes - the Silent Killer. For years diabetes ruthlessly attacked her body, making an already petite woman increasingly fragile. We watched as her health deteriorated, but we didn't know the reason why. She suffered in silence. She experienced chest pains and extreme exhaustion but said nothing.

Only after an infected stubbed toe, did she reveal that she had diabetes. She went to the hospital to have it examined. My aunt Gloria never came home again. She had a heart attack in the hospital before her toe had been treated. Her cause of death may have been diabetes, but I'd say silence was death's accomplice.
